mac is beautiful with desige. . .better than windows.

Windows is better in my opinion, and most video games that are for Windows usually cost much more when made for Mac.

im would have to go with windows because there is an abundance of software available and almost all games are windows only to begin with. macs definetely have my pick when it comes to design tho.

WINDOWS

Its the best, i love it like a child, its nice to look at, fast and useful, programs are easy to come by, supported by a multi-billion pound company, i mean come on, whoi couldnt love it. Plus Visual Basic (A windows prgramming language) is real easy to use unlike C++, im still a novice at programming.

Windows because of the compatibility of games but if linux was one of the choices i would pick it

Mac
Pro: Best for photo designers and video editing; more secure than win; faster
Cons: very expensive; very few softwares available

Windows
Pro: Many softwares; cheaper; customizable
Cons: Not so secure; easier to crash; interface is harder to learn than Mac

Me? I use both.

Windows hard to leanr, yeah right windows is easy. Mac isnt as stable as everyone claims, its because mac is built for people with patience which is something i dont have.

Anyway, I already have Norton, Spybot, and Adaware, as well Spyware Blaster and Spy Sweeper. I'm no dummy when it comes to Internet security.

...You seem to be under the impression that there is something wrong with my computer. There is not. My experience with Windows XP (SP2) has been rarely, if ever, buggy.


Lol... If that were true (the part about there being nothing wrong with your computer, and winXP sp2 not being buggy), you would not need to use Norton, Adware, Spybot, spyware blaster, and spybot....

Mac OS is very stable but it does not have the variety of application available like windows.


well, outside games, I find that while the Mac has fewer programs for any given task, the programs it has are at least as good if not better than those on the PC. Also, all the big software packages have mac versions. Finally, for some jobs the mac is easily the best there is, for instance: video editing.

I chose Windows. It's because there are currently many available running applications for Windows. Mac OS is very stable but it does not have the variety of application available like windows. And Windows can be installed to a clone pc.

nooooo, you were fixing the security problem. And you will continue to have to fix it, which is another problem.
